Our housing, our education, our lives and our movement depend on the internet. This dependency puts those with access at an advantage, and communities that historically excluded at a disadvantage. At this educational forum we'll talk about the importance of the internet in our everyday lives, and discuss how the struggles we face off-line relate to our struggles online.
This event is one of many being hosted across the country by members of the Media Action Grassroots Network (MAG-Net) as part of its National Day of Action.
